Pass, I love their products but I am done with CD players. Servers and streaming for me. Love my Statement.
Schiit URD CD Transport SOON?
A non-working model of the long rumored Schiit URD CD Transport has started showing at hifi shows. The device was shown in the Schiit Booth at T.H.E Show in California a week or so ago.

I am waiting for it. I have little interest in a CD player, but the URD is supposed to have USB pass-through (with USB-C connectors, unfortunately, as there are not many audiophile USB-C cables). Then it sends out the USB through Schitt's implementation using Unison. When matched with the Unison USB input in their DACs, this might be a significant improvement. Time will tell. I would more interested in a little box that would take in non-Unison USB and output Unison USB, but I have not heard plans for something like that. |
The Urd is listed on Schiit's site as of this morning, 7/12/23. I was considering picking one up, however the list price is $1299, which is $1000 more than I was considering worth spending considering the amount of CD playing I do. It also has many functions related to USB which I personally do not find use for. |
Any yet, now, it's available for purchase a mere 18-days after your insightful comment. |
